very convenient for almost all members to move.

Part 3: Four people are interviewed about their eating habits. Read their comments
Person A
In my opinion, all this ‘eat five portions of fruit and veg a day’ is a big con! Most of my
adult life I’ve avoided eating fruit and vegetables, and I’m super-fit. I think it’s just big
business trying to sell us so-called superfoods that we don’t need. As prehistoric people
we only ate meat, plus a few roots and berries. My diet is very simple – I eat a lot of
bread and pasta, meat and eggs, some fats in the form of cheese, and I have plenty of
fluids.
Person B
I live by the mantra ‘you are what you eat’. I focus on natural proteins, and I don’t eat
any processed food or simple carbohydrates at all. Not only that, I fast from 5pm to 11am
the following day – all I have in the mornings is a black coffee. Lots of research has been
done to show how intermittent fasting combined with eating the right food can help
combat things like depression, high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes.
Person C
I have a glass of milk for breakfast and I have lunch at school. The canteen there’s OK, I
suppose, though I do think they should prepare more vegetable dishes. A lot of the food is
meat-based and most things are fried, which isn’t very healthy. At least they always have
fresh fruit every day, which is one good thing. When I get home I normally have lots of
Person D
I never cook – I don’t have time to even think about what to eat! In my opinion, food
shouldn’t dominate our lives – other things are far more important. I’m a full-time
university student and I also work in the evenings, so I eat whatever my parents cook for
me. If I’m going straight from class to work, I’ll eat some street food. Luckily, a lot of
street food is incredibly healthy – especially spring rolls and noodle soup, which is
delicious.
Now match the person to the opinion by selecting their name from the list.
Who feels that what they eat hasn’t affected their health? D
Who never eats in the evenings? B

A. Plant-for-the-Planet
2D3H4I5G6C7F
The children's initiative Plant-for-the-Planet, first launched in 2007, was brought to life
by the then 9-year-old Felix Finkbeiner, who felt inspired to take action following a
school report on the climate crisis. While carrying out his research, Felix became aware
of Kenyan environmental activist and Nobel Peace laureate Wangari Maathai and her
initiative that had led to the planting of 30 million trees over 30 years. By the time he had
finished his research project, Felix had developed his own vision of 1 million trees being
planted in each country by children around the world. Felix went on to other classes and
schools to present his report and his vision. Just a few weeks later, on the 28th of March

Over the next two years Felix brought the Plant-for-the-Planet initiative to the world. In
June 2008, at the UNEP children's conference in Norway, Felix presented his vision. 700
children delegates, from over 105 countries were so inspired that they voted Felix onto
the UNEP Junior Board. Felix has since spoken at many important environmental and
climatic events. In August 2009 at the UNEP Tunza Children and Youth Conference in
themselves to join the initiative and work towards planting 1 million trees in their own
countries
3. ………………
Of particular importance to the children is the conviction that it is most often developing
countries that are hit hardest by the consequences of climate change. The children are
convinced that a solution for climate justice can only be reached through the
campaigning tirelessly and the children are also taking action themselves by planting
trees. This is viewed both as a practical act, as each tree removes harmful C02 from the
Ministers from Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Canada, Turkey and Mexico planted the
one millionth tree in Germany. This planting initiative was held under the programme
heading "Stop Talking. Start Planting", and took place alongside the so-called
"Petersburg Climate Dialogue" being held in Bonn. This was also the location where
preparations were being made for the climate summit in Cancun. Together with delegates
and important participants in the World Climate Change Conference COP 16 in Cancun,
December 2010, the children planted another 193 trees. Through this action the children
were able to demonstrate to the participating representatives just how important it is that
5. ……………
If the children were the government leaders, and had to face the big decisions at the next
climate summit, they would already have a clear plan of action for the future. On 1st July
2010, the children handed over their "3-Point-Plan" to 133 embassies in Berlin. They also
put forward their challenge to the government leaders to reveal their plans and proposed
solutions for the climate crisis and subsequently the procurement of a safe future. Their
plan:
2) Climate Justice: If you want more carbon you have to pay for it.
3) Planting Trees: If 500 Million trees were planted every year, this would mean an
The world-wide slogan for Plant-for-the-Planet is "Stop Talking. Start Planting". The
children are adamant in their belief that talking alone does not achieve results and that
now is the time for action. This slogan has been adapted into an eye-catching promotion
where the children stand along side high profile community members, holding their hand
over the respective community member's mouth and face. A number of prominent

votes through the internet. The Foundation helps to fund the activities of children

foundation boards in the world. The tenure of a board member is one year and re-election
is not allowed. Adults help the children with advice and practical support.
